    I'm not sure how the NFL plans to schedule those games, since the bye weeks are usually done prior to Christmas. Theoretically they could place one team that played on the Thursday night game the week prior to play on Christmas, but what about the other teams?

  • @wavion2
    @wavion2 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I don't like it. But if it has to be I think another option would be to have it be Division Rivals and have them play their first game the previous Thursday and their second game the following Wednesday, on Christmas. That would give them nearly a full week, and they would both benefit from a mini-bye afterwards. It'd be a little weird for the teams to play back-to-back, but that's basically already happening. Last season the Chiefs played the Broncos in week 6 and again in week 8.

    Roger doesn't care about players safety. Let's ban a tackle and have the ref's fix more games for us, since we "care" about player's safety. BUT 2 or more teams will have to play on even shorter week for a Wednesday Christmas Day game, than the normal gay Thursday Night games that nobody watches.
